<strong>Carvins</strong> <strong>Cove</strong> Natural Preserve<br />

2010 <strong>Trail</strong> Management <strong>Plan</strong><br />

1. Design Philosophy<br />

The purpose of this appendix to the <strong>Carvins</strong> <strong>Cove</strong> Natural Reserve <strong>Trail</strong><br />

Management <strong>Plan</strong> is to set the visual and functional context for the trails<br />

and their various support and adjunct facilities. The following concepts and<br />

design guidelines are meant to set the character and mirror the natural<br />

landscape of the <strong>Cove</strong> and establish a uniform feel for the enjoyment of our<br />

park visitors.<br />

Our philosophy is to create amenities and environments to be usable by all<br />

people, to the greatest extent possible, without the need for adaptation or<br />

specialized design. These concepts were established to guide a wide range<br />

of design disciplines including environments, products, and communications.<br />

While this section does not address all specifications necessary to develop<br />

these amenities, it does depict the visual and sustainable character necessary<br />

to compliment the natural beauty of <strong>Carvins</strong> <strong>Cove</strong>. Specific typical sections<br />

and specifications that are recommended for use with the <strong>Cove</strong> may be<br />

found primarily within the National Park Service’s Denver Service Center as<br />

well as the USDA Forest Service Design Specifications. Specific design specifications<br />

and construction details shall be rendered by a registered Landscape<br />

Architect or a Professional Engineer.<br />
